如何使用.NET读取ASP.NET内部服务器错误描述？

Question

Behold the code:

using (var client = new WebClient())
{
    try
    {
        var bytesReceived = client.UploadData("http://localhost", bytesToPost);
        var response = client.Encoding.GetString(bytesReceived);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
    }
}

I am getting this HTTP 500 internal server error when the UploadData method is called. But I can't see the error description anywhere in the "ex" object while debugging. How do I rewrite this code so I can read the error description?

Answer 1

Web servers often return an error page with more details (either HTML or plain text depending on the server). You can grab this by catching WebException and reading the response stream from its Response property.

Answer 2

I found useful information for debugging this way:

        catch (WebException ex)
        {
            HttpWebResponse httpWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)ex.Response;
            String details = "NONE";
            String statusCode = "NONE";
            if (httpWebResponse != null)
            {
                details = httpWebResponse.StatusDescription;
                statusCode = httpWebResponse.StatusCode.ToString();
            }

            Response.Clear();
            Response.Write(ex.Message);
            Response.Write("<BR />");
            Response.Write(ex.Status);
            Response.Write("<BR />");
            Response.Write(statusCode);
            Response.Write("<BR />");
            Response.Write(details);
            Response.Write("<BR />");
            Response.Write(ex);
            Response.Write("<BR />");
        }

Answer 3

尝试捕获HttpException并在其上调用GetHtmlErrorMessage（）

Answer 4

我一直很喜欢

Debug.WriteLine( ex.ToString() );

Answer 5

You should use HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. WebClient is the simplest thing to use to do basic web communication, but it does not provide the functionality you need. I think it's better to do this because it will not throw an exception.
